Boy, I hope this isn't all a large scale MK Ultra they're pulling on us...

What's your background that you've developed this knowledge? I fantasize about learning to do some of my own electronics repair, but I wouldn't know where to begin. I've looked at trade school and continuing education programs and some online resources, but I don't want to be an appliance repair guy. I just want to know which component to order and replace when my Japanese hot water boiler burns out.

I know a tiny bit about goats although not this specific case. That the goat is a rescue doesn't tell us much about its background but we can make a reasonable assumption that whatever its conditions before, they were worse and arguably less species-appropriate than riding around in a duck costume at Target.

Hey, that's not fair. Most gas stations these days have convenience stores.

And yet J6 became a rallying cry and purity test. I've seen too much to be too hopeful that this will amount to more than that. Shed a few from the margins, galvanize those who stick with it (most of the supporters). I hope I'm wrong.

I've avoided ordering from Loop after reading similar reports. I'd considered getting some of their ear plugs to try, but now I would just try something generic from AliExpress. If it's not going to show up for a month, it may as well be super cheap.

Could you share some of your requirements? Do you want to block on a whole network, individual devices...? What kind of devices, running what operating systems? Why don't you like AdGuard?

Do you have any good resources for someone who has never practiced Tai Chi but who would be interested in starting? Is it better to find an instructor locally or are there some decent online options?

 

From the linked GameSpot article:

"8BitDo has revealed the successor to its popular Pro 2 Bluetooth Controller. Officially called the Pro 3 Bluetooth Gamepad, the upcoming controller retains the form factor of the Pro 2 while implementing some of the enhanced features found in the Ultimate 2 Bluetooth, such as TMR joysticks and trigger locks. It also has a few entirely new features not found on other 8BitDo controllers, including swappable magnetic face buttons and an extra pair of arcade-inspired ball-top stick caps.

The 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth Gamepad is available to preorder now at Amazon for $70 ahead of its August 12 release. It comes in three retro-themed colors: G Classic, Gray, and a shade of purple that pays homage to the Nintendo GameCube. All three models come with matching charging docks and a set ball-top arcade stick toppers that can be swapped in for the traditional rubberized caps. Out of the box, the Pro 3 is compatible with Switch 2, Switch, PC, Android, Apple devices, and Steam Deck."
